GEORGE TOWN, CAYMAN ISLANDS — Casey Rodgers of Kamloops has been selected to compete for Canada at the Pickleball World Cup for the second consecutive year.

She is one of 10 on the national team who will compete in the open division at the event, which is scheduled to run from Oct. 27 to Nov. 2 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Last week, she moved to George Town, Cayman Islands, to accept a coaching position at Pickleball Cayman.

Rodgers, a member of the Kamloops Pickleball Club, started playing the sport seven years ago and, as CFJC Today reports, the game has changed her life.
